Battle Suits and like exo-skeletons and like? Anyone done rules for them in
Traveller? Something like Star Ship Troopers mobile infantry but more real..
Only reason I can think why they had the spray and pray way of shooting was
due to being side a space station/ship and not wanting to damaging it with
real effective at killing the bugs but also for punching wholes in walls? Or
for the dramatic effect and almost horror like blood letting.. Me, give me a
good modified autogrenade laungher and lets have fun.. M9 or ... been to
long out of the Infantry.. If you are worried about damaging things, give me
some flachette rounds or .. taser or ...taser grenades with a taser but a
self contained power source so the round hits and SHOCK! With out the old
current wire and all?
Been following a discussion on a gurps list about battle suits and all..
nothing as fancy as Tilcs in SG or Iron Mans but .. basic suits are for
basic stuff, then you got a weapons carrier and then a sniper or like
model..
wild how the memory goes.. I can still shoot one and fire it in my head but
.. not a M79 but ..
Is Warhammer or stargrunts better for Traveller? I expect Star Grunts for
wargamming things if needed.
Starship trooper missed somethings.
One the drop pods that ablated off as the trooper came in hard and fast.
The jump and being able to have limited flight and being able to fire on the
jump,
dangerous to a degree but ..
